Manga Café: Teen Graphic Novel Hangout

MoComCon Lead-Up Event

Browse manga and graphic novels, get recommendations from teen hosts, vote in a snack bracket, make a bookmark, and place holds. Optional labeled Japanese snacks available. Drop in and enjoy!

Drop in for a relaxed manga and graphic novel hangout. Browse a curated table, get quick recommendations, and line up a next read before MoComCon season. Manga beginners and graphic novel readers are welcome.

Activities include:

• Browsing manga and graphic novels across genres and reading levels.
• Getting recommendations based on favorite shows, games, books, or themes.
• Voting in a just-for-fun snack bracket.
• Making a take-home bookmark.
• Placing holds or checking out titles before leaving.

Teen Advisory Board members will greet participants, run the voting table, share reading suggestions, and help with hold requests.

Optional Japanese snacks will be store-bought, and ingredient and allergen information will be posted. Participation never requires tasting; browsing, voting, and bookmark-making provide full engagement. Snacks available while supplies last.
